We are thrilled to share that for the second consecutive year that George Washington University Hospital has been recognized as a Best Regional Hospital by U.S News and World Report. GW Hospital ranks 4th in the region, which includes hospitals in D.C. and parts of Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. To be ranked as a Best Regional Hospital, a hospital or healthcare system has to outperform its peers in procedures and conditions that U.S. News & World Report evaluates, including risk-adjusted survival, patient experience, level of nursing care and successfully returning patients home following discharge. "As an academic medical center, our multidisciplinary care teams are dedicated to outstanding clinical excellence, research, and education in order to achieve the best possible outcomes for our patients. This recognition by U.S. News & World Report, which places us within the top hospitals in the region, is a testament to the range of advanced services we offer and the expertise, specialized skills, and commitment of our entire care team," shared Kimberly Russo, Chief Executive Officer of The George Washington University Hospital and UHS Group Vice President of the Washington, D.C. Region. Thank you to all of our team members who helped make this remarkable achievement possible! #BestHospitals

Odessa adored hanging out with her big and loving family. She also enjoyed the rich homemade feasts that were the center of their gatherings. But these delicious meals, desk work, and a driving lifestyle added to her burden. After needing a seat belt extender during a flight, Odessa reached out to our Weight Loss Center for help in regaining her life. To learn more about Odessa's journey, please visit http://spklr.io/6049SdTz or listen on your favorite streaming apps including Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, and Spotify.

July is Sarcoma and Bone Cancer Awareness Month. Primary bone cancers (cancers that start in the bones) are uncommon, accounting for less than 1% of all cancers. At GW Cancer Center, we think that's 1% too much. Learn more about our bone cancer program by visiting http://spklr.io/6046Sw6a. #GWCancerCenter #sarcoma #bonecancer
